  Would it be possible to assign swap to a removable media device and then bootstrap the installer to run in that environment on a device with 128mb?

    Probably. You'll have to hack the install procedure to enable swapping before it's being run though. If you're serious about trying this, the fastest path is to install CentOS in a VM on a suitable machine that isn't going to spend a day in the installer swapping like crazy, and copy the image to a physical drive which you eventually stuff into the ancient low memory box.
